ABC Easy As 123

*Burp!* "Ahh.." just got back from mouth watering Kuey Teow soup at Gasing, damn shiok!

Kick start 3 week worth of sem break by waking up early to have breakfast with the bunch. The food took 10mins to finish but we only leave after an hour there. So much to crap about although we just had futsal on the previous night. I'm still figuring how to spend my hols effieciently and productively. I'm expecting a call from MPH to work part time during the warehouse sale. Just trying to make a few extra cash. A lil extra pocket money never hurt anyone, rite? ;) I have a lot of movies to catch up on, never really had the time and company to do it but I'm going to end my movie-drought with the premiere screening of "Up" coming UP come Tuesday! hahaha.. get it? UP? Coming UP?! =.=" (lame chop!).



In conjuction with the start of my sem break, I am going to share my thoughts with you on how to pose in pictures. This may sound easy for the girls but as for guys, we usually succumb to posing in a rather "macho" way or rather stiff. Why? Because it's easier, more effective and most importantly we don't have to reveal much facial details like pimples, zits, oily forehead or worse.. hair hanging from inside the nose because for most guys, we don't give much attention to little details like that and it's a matter of fact. Therefore in my opinion, it's important guys know how to "act" in front of the camera because a good pose leads to a great picture and great picture well, expose your sexy side which can further proceed to girls admiring, no?

So here's 3 easy step for men to give a great pose for a great picture.

1. Don't forget to smile.

A good smile brings the impression that you're carefree and in a very jolly mood. It lightens the picture even if it's taken in a back alley of Chow Kit road. Give a wide smile but don't overdo it. It's like talking to girls, have a little sense of humor, crack jokes once in a while but don't overdo it with lame jokes from your memory bank like knock knock and chicken cross the road type of joke. Smile but not too much.. just wide enough to show, "hey look at me! Cheese~".

Too Much

Just Nice

2. Finger gestures.

The choice of finger gestures is also vital in playing the kawaii (cute) role. Don't pose like a crapper I mean rapper and hope your picture would eventually be cute enough to kill. Girls like it when guys know how to join them in the who-is-cuter-in-the-picture contest Guys enjoy using the international finger when taking pictures and I must say it's one of the worse choice you can ever pick. Classic "peace" sign (^^v) is my favorite and also the sunflower style (two palms support chin) is a choice to consider. For amateurs, you can try practicing the great "1 to 10 rule" with your fingers while posing in front of a mirror which I did during my schooling days out of nuisance.

3. Use props

Props can be found lying anywhere around you. Grab anything you feel is appropriate and it can give a certain boost in the picture depending on the stuff you use. Stuff like shades, hats, beanie or even umbrella can be really effective in creating that extra "Ohmph!".
